The moment Liam heard Lana sobbing on the phone, he picked his car keys and rushed to the parking lot and drove his car in the last gear on the road that went to her review centre. He did not bother to call Lana back but focussed into driving as fast as he could so he could reach the review center to be with her by his side.

He was too worried about her emotional stability, though it was only a bad dream. He did not want Lana to suffer with any kind of anxiety and being alone in such a time in itself was enough to make her anxious. If only he could fly, he would be with her in a flash.

After calling his friend to call the guards and let him pass, he went directly to Lana’s room. He did not want Lana to be alone in that state where she was crying after having a nightmare.

Lana very soon overcame her shock of seeing him in the middle of the night outside her room and felt so safe and secure in Liam’s arms as she had never felt before. She in fact wanted to call him again on his mobile and talk a little bit more with him while she could calm down and sleep again, but she didn’t want to trouble him and so restrained herself from calling him. And yet he surprised her with his sudden appearance at her doorstep.

His words of assurance that he would always stay with her were too overwhelming for her, and the fact that he took the effort to drive alone at that hour to be with her made her realise how important she was to him. Lana raised her head to look at him intently. Her eyes filled with unsaid emotions, full with love and passion.

“Thank you,” she whispered while her face leaned forward, closer to his until she reached his soft lips. She gently kissed him and soon moved her body on top of him. The couple was separated for a few days and both missed each other’s warmth and closeness, and their deep and passionate kiss said it all.

Liam ran his fingers in Lana’s hair as he kissed her with the same intensity, gentle but passionately. His other hand instinctively slipped inside Lana’s shirt, trailing her curves up to her chest and landed on his most favourite spot, gently caressing her soft mounds. Lana m.o.a.ned in between the kiss and even removed her own sleep shirt, leaving only her panty on since she did not wear a bra while sleeping.

She left his lips and cupped Liam’s face with her both hands staring at his. His breathing was erratic as he kissed Lana’s palm on her cheek. Lana pulled his shirt off and Liam moved to a sitting position so she could remove his sleep shirt easily. She sat on his lap, gently pulling his shirt up.

“You’re beautiful,” Liam, in his hoarse voice whispered in her ear while his hand ran through her bare chest, caressing every part of her body, leaving Lana’s hair all up in a burning sensation. Lana touched his cheek with one of her hands and whispered, “And you’re handsome.”

Liam chuckled but Lana gasped in a mixture of pain and pleasure when she felt his hand cupped then gently pinched one of her hard n.i.p.p.l.es. Shit bit her lips while their smoky eyes stared at each other. Her hand on his cheek crawled into Liam’s hair as he bent down to capture one of her n.i.p.p.l.es.

Lana’s body arched, giving him more space to linger on her chest. But then she pulled him up so she could kiss his lips more. While hugging him tightly.

She did not want to let him go away from her hug and Liam could feel her possessiveness so he gently pushed her and looked at her asking, “What’s wrong?”

Lana shook her head, but the emotions inside her were about to explode. Her tears unconsciously fell from her eyes, so Liam got worried. He kissed her cheeks as he wiped the tears with his thumbs and repeatedly said, “Love what’s wrong. Tell me.”

“I… l..ove.. You…” he heard her voice whisper something. She was stuttering, so Liam was unsure if he heard it correctly, but he felt his heart suddenly stopped beating at the moment. He stared at her blankly while Lana sniffed and repeated in a clearer voice, “I love you..”

Liam almost cut his tongue in a daze. He froze and stared at Lana as if he could not believe he would hear those words from her lips. He dreamed about her saying those words but had not thought she would say it so soon… it happened finally but he was still in disbelief…

‘Liam wake up wake up!’ his inner self tried to wake him up from his daydreaming because he felt he just reached heaven hearing those three-letter words from the woman called Lana .

Lana pursed her lips. It shocked her as well with how those words suddenly came out from her mouth. But she knew she was simply avoiding this day as her heart was beating for her husband since a long time. All she didn’t have was the courage of speaking it in words. She was happy to say it out loud to him, but Liam was caught off guard by her sudden confession and he was almost in a daze hearing her words, so she opened her mouth to repeat it again.

“I love you…”

No response, so Lana thought to repeat in a louder and clearer words with heavy diction.

“I… Love…. You…”

She creased her forehead and whispered, “Didn’t you hear me?”

“Did you really say what I heard?” Liam probed her before responding further

Lana smiled at his reaction and nodded and said, “Did you hear correctly that I said I love you?”

“I did, my love, but it’s more than music to my ears with you repeating those words to me over and over again…” Liam finally found his voice to respond.

Lana’s face blushed as Liam caressed her cheeks with the back of his hand.

“I love you too, Lana…” he whispered before sealing her lips with her. He could not help it. The emotions were too much for him to take because his eyes swelled and tears fell from his eyes while he kissed her.

Lana felt his tears on her cheek, so she broke free from the kiss and looked at Liam.

Liam only noticed it when he felt Lana wipe those tears out from his cheeks. “You’re crying,” Lana whispered. “Why?” and her eyes were also moist as she asked him this.

Liam smiled and said, “Yeah, tears of happiness…”

“Actually, I knew you loved me too, but I was waiting for you to voice it out to me and say in words. Before I was already content that I could feel your love and longing for me through your actions, but just now I found out it’s much better not only to feel physically but also to hear those words. Action and in words…” Liam stressed full of love followed by gentle kisses on Lana’s face. He basically showered every part of her face with kisses followed by the words ‘I love you…’

Lana chuckled and said, “Why do I feel like you want me to do the same to you?”

Liam looked at her and said, “Hmm, I will be honored if you will.”

Lana shook her head and pushed him on the bed. She removed their lower clothes. Tonight she would shower her husband, not only with kisses and those three-letter words, but make him feel full as well.
